Seminarier och föreläsningar
Barncancerfonden anordnar seminarier och möten om barnonkologi för att lyfta den senaste forskningen och utvecklingen inom området och bidra till bättre behandlingar för barn med cancer.
Genom att samla experter, vårdpersonal och forskare vill Barncancerfonden bidra till nya samarbeten och kunskapsutbyten som driver innovation. Vi vill också öka medvetenheten om de särskilda utmaningarna inom barnonkologi, inklusive långsiktiga komplikationer, för att öka förståelsen för de drabbade och deras familjer.
